The Laramie County Democrats will meet on Monday, Oct. 21, 7 p.m., at the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) Hall, 1810 Fremont Ave., Cheyenne.

Speakers will
talk about the ongoing affects of the shutdown and furloughs on the State
of Wyoming. More than 200 state employees were furloughed during the recent Republican-spawned federal government shutdown. At your last meeting,
we had a number of new members. At least two of them were one-time
Republicans who no longer can stomach the crackpot shenanigans of the
Grand Old Party.

Also on the agenda is a discussion of upcoming events, projects and
elections. One of those events is a chili feed on Thursday, Oct. 24, 6-8 p.m., sponsored by the Laramie County Democrats Grassroots Coalition. Due to road construction, the venue has been changed from the Old
Community House in Lions Park to the South Room of the Kiwanis Community House. LCDGC Secretary Kathleen Petersen invites you to

Come
on out and visit with local elected officials and eat some good chili.
Bring a fruit pie to share for dessert. Bring a friend too.

Last time I went to one of these shindigs, the chili was spicy and plentiful and the company was friendly (a bit spicy, too).
